It seems that the further we go into the 21st century, the further away from having manners and being polite and understanding we move. We forget the essential rules that we have grown up with.
That is why I am writing this today as a reminder of what we should all practice daily. For a better world. For a better tomorrow.
This is something that my Nana wrote and gave to me as a young boy, It goes as follows:
These are the principles that are to be lived by and respected.
Respect and honour your parents.
It is a…
I am dreaming.
I am dreaming.
I am dreaming.
I open my eyes. I am back on earth. Seagulls above me. Ocean in front of me. The waves are crashing onto the sandy beach. The ocean water surrounds my legs, and rushes past me and retreats just as fast. As I look down I am barefooted and dressed in white pants and a long white shirt that is flowing in the wind like a white surrender flag. My hand, my left hand is attached. A feeling of stability and home, safety. I feel at peace like there are no worries…
1.) No Exercising:
Countless studies support the fact that exercising is a massive antidepressant. So why not? I recommend following a plan by a trusted person that knows your exercising goals. I would also consult your doctor about any health conditions you may have. Daily exercise will make you healthier and improve your way of living.
2.) Unhealthy Relationships:
Forgive, forget and move on. Removing unhealthy relationships applies to friends, family, boyfriends, girlfriends, whatever. Holding onto or being in a relationship that diminishes your mental or physical health is not worth keeping in your life. Leave the relationship on as…
In 2020 a study on eleven thousand individuals resulted in an average screen time of just under four hours. On average a person checks their phone fifty-eight times a day. This is crazy when you take into account that there are other things that are more productive and better for you that could fill that gap. 2020 was a tough year for all of us when confined to our homes we were forced to keep the mind occupied by all things that helped us cope. Whether it was memes, videos, or endless scrolling on the socials. A lot of valuable…
World wide panic, essentials shortage, people turning on each other, negative media outbursts, mass hysteria, sick people, dying people, hospitals overwhelmed, cries for help, and the world standing still. Watching as this unfolds before our eyes. This is the reality of the world we had created for ourselves.
All of these undeniable situations, the inescapable fact was that I had to fly home to Norway from London. Thinking about all the things that could go wrong made me nervous and implanted a lot of worry in my mind. …
Clickbait, isn’t it? Almost all the articles, videos, and posts I read with a similar title to this one, all follow the same pattern.
Step 1: Start an online business.
Step 2: Charge people money for your services.
Step 3: Bask in the rewards of hard work.
Simple in theory. However, proven to be very difficult in practice.
HARD WORK.
The keyword missing from a lot of these articles.
Starting and running a business at home is not a simple task. Many people fail to recognize that there is no secret formula for getting rich overnight. Yes, there are a…
I am an average man from the not so average country of South Africa. At the beginning of 2020, the year all my hopes and dreams were meant to come true, I decided to join my step-cousin Conor and move to London. I packed my entire life into two bags and booked a flight. Conor had already been living in London for six months but he returned to South Africa for a family holiday over December and January.
At the end of January, we were booked on a flight that would change our lives forever. Moving overseas was something I…

A while ago I watched “The Social Dilemma” on Netflix (Yes, I know I’m late to the party but at least I’m here now.). An unbelievable documentary by the way. I recommend that everyone watches it.
Before watching a social drama I didn’t have any problems with social media use, that I was aware of. Thus causing me to investigate the amount of time that I spent using these apps. I realize that things are way more toxic than they portray. I argued with a friend, well not an argument but an open conversation about screen time on our phones…
To provide some context. I have never been interested in the stock market just because I felt I could use my money for things that I want now rather than giving it away to a company. But at the beginning of 2020 after the “Great Crash” and the introduction of the worldwide Corona situation. I took an interest in the stock market that will forever stay unsatisfied. The reason I took an interest, is because stock prices of some of the most well known and valuable companies dropped in value by an insane amount. They were at a world record…
